Photovoltaic (PV) Waste Management in Israel

PV modules have been installed in Israel since 2009. Although there are regulations covering most aspectes of PV management – such as the installation process, grid connection and Fid-in Tariffs – there is still no regulation addressing end-of-life management of PV modules. Additionally, no estimates have been made for the volume of PV waste expected in the coming years. The objectives of this research are: 1) assess the annual and cumulative volumes of PV module waste in Israel through 2050, and 2) recommend policy measures that effectively address the issue of PV module waste.
